# 39 - Extraordinary Prayer - Part 3

Cornell Haan in 1998 suggested 3 steps to extraordinary prayer. Step3 – Pray about what is on God’s heart. Haan suggests that we can know what is on God’s heart, and pray with power, if we are thirsty for God. We can know God’s heart through silence (listening to the Holy Spirit). We can know God’s heart if we pray with the Bible open, searching the Word for God’s truth. Extraordinary prayer is 1) not casual and lighthearted, 2) not dry and emotionless, 3) not routine and boring. We pray ordinary prayers all the time. But these times call for extraordinary prayer. Step up and pray with power, God’s power.
